I’ve been using Trader Joe’s pizza dough but struggling getting it crispy the way I like without overcooking the cheese. Does throwing the dough in the oven before I add sauce and toppings make sense to anyone? I use a normal oven. (The pic is a doctored up frozen jacks. It said I was required to have an attachment and that is all I have)

    Yeah you can absolutely do that. We call this technique par baking. In fact for certain pizzas I’ve made in my high protein eating conversions, it’s almost a necessity.

    I suggest shaping it out however you do, but adding the sauce to par bake it. It can help concentrate the sauce just a bit and make it a bit less watery.

    Also, how are you baking it? On a stone or steel? Or Are you putting it on a cold pan and then sticking it in the oven?
